Novogenia uses the latest technologies, in order to ensure the best possible accuracy of the analysis.

Reagents

Reagents are prepared in UV decontaminated chambers, so their contamination is prevented

Saskia - Laboratory

Saskia is a laboratory assistant with a university degree in Molecular Bio-sciences from the University of Salzburg. She takes care of calibrations, routine and ISO Compliance.

DNA Extraction

The DNA extraction is fully automated. The largest of the five DNA extraction robots can handle almost 200 saliva samples in two hours. The result is high quality pure DNA, which can be further processed.

Daniel - Management

Dr. Daniel Wallerstorfer is biotechnologist and he is the managing director of the laboratory and the group of companies. He is responsible for the scientific supervision and for the product development.

Routine process

A full 384 well plate loaded with 75 customers DNA sample is prepared in a real-time cycle for analysis. The results of the genetic analysis are ready for interpretation 1.5 hours later.

Meeting room

International meetings and product training sessions will be held on webcam and flat screen TV. Difficult medical issues can be effectively discussed.

Liquid handling

Robots carry out pipetting steps, in order to avoid human errors. All reagents and plates are additionally barcoded, to prevent mixing the samples.

Extraction preparation

Cheek swabs are prepared for automated extraction. Nearly 200 samples are extracted in one run. Having five extractors, the total capacity is 100.000 swabs per month.

Eradication slope

The remaining swabs are stored until the analysis is complete. If there is insufficient quantity or quality of the DNA obtained on the first attempt, the process is repeated with the second swab.

Maria - Design

Maria is an industrial designer with a university degree of the FH Joanneum Graz. She is in charge of packaging, design, and ISO compliance. Maria leads a team of six software developers.

Automated processing

Through an automated processing of the queue, the laboratory is operational 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It can easily perform up to 50,000 analyzes per month.

Creative team

The Novogenia team consists of young, creative people, having high quality demands and ambitious goals for the future of human genetics. We are always looking for new, valuable members.

Sample acceptance

Upon arrival, each sample is provided with a barcode, and the identity of the patient is kept encrypted. The processing is done in the lab with anonymous barcodes.

Daniela and Rene - Laboratory

Daniela is a geneticist responsible for the acceptance pf the samples, DNA extraction, preparation, equipment maintenance and routine processes. Rene is also a geneticist in charge of the routine and the new developments in the field of genetic testing and technology

Sample receipt

Currently, up to 5000 genetic samples per month are stored in analysis racks for further processing. Depending on the type of the analyses and the quality of the sample, the time from sample receipt to the dispatching of the results is maximum 14 days.

Florian - Laboratory

Florian is a geneticist and managed the routine processes, software developments, scientific research and the establishment of new products and technologies.

Thomas - Laboratory

Thomas is a geneticist and works in the area of routine diagnostics, sample acceptance, analysis and product development.

Baby Sensor 100+

Content is coming soon!

Is your baby healthy?

In the first years, your baby's body develops very quickly. Therefore the presence of an undiagnosed and therefore untreated genetic disease can have serious consequences for the health of your child.

For whom is Baby Sensor 100+ appropriate?

Frequency of the analysed diseases

Many of these diseases are relatively rare and it is unlikely that a child will develop this particular disease. However, because we are testing over 110 diseases, the frequency of the disease (and the immediate need for action) is relevant. If you take the estimates from public sources and own experiences from several hundred thousand samples into consideration, there is a 0.53% probability that a newborn will develop one of these diseases, which is one child out of 189 which will need immediate diagnosis and treatment to prevent any severe consequences.
